man. its too damn slow.

just to start convo.

i replaced my center consol. to replace the broken heater control knob. i also took out the f-r ballance switch. and replace it with a blank pannel, to make it look a lil cleaner. maybe tommorow il replace the little bit of trim around the seat belt. i uncloged the sunroof. tomorow maybe il replace the thermostat things for the eletric fan. all in preperation for going back to college. when i wont be able to pay for gas, and will probibly just park the car, except driving home and back.

i agree. it has been rather slow of late, which is upsetting. I'm planning to install my CAI by the end of september, and chances are i'll need some tech support.

whats wrong with your fan? it doesnt turn on?

**komodo** · 08-25-2005, 10:39 PM

This afternoon it was busy as hell... i couldn't even keep up with the posting in the e36 section.

I'm working on getting the database part of the new server setup and secured, that's why I'm not posting much.

It'll probably be another day or two before we can go live with the new server though.

naw the fan doesnt run. so the car over heats like crazy. right now its jerry rigged to run when ever the cars on. its all good. i got everything i need to fix it, i just gotta take time to drain some coolant and do the work.

im doing some maintenance before school too..

balljoints, CAB's, and new rotors/pads up front.. should tighten everything up.

And maybe tires for my contours.. if i can find somewhere to mount and balance them for under 50 bucks

Im going to attempt to do an alignment myself too..

You wanna see dead? Sign on when I do at 6am

**TerryY** · 08-26-2005, 08:11 AM

6:04 PST and there are 3 of us.

I think that LIFE may get in the way sometimes

I know that work does.

I suppose that I should stop being lazy and post more too.

**xsperf** · 08-26-2005, 01:15 PM

im on a different computer now, and all the avatars are screwed up, but i think on my own personal computer from what i can remember the avatars work fine

**RogueRonin** · 08-26-2005, 02:45 PM

Yeah, avatars are messed up for the West coast, but the DNS just isn't done doin' it's thang. When I first logged on this morning, all the avatars were all pixilated, and I though with all the geek talk, that people went to that.

But as soon as Harry mentioned DNS, I was like; "Oh, that makes a lot more sense." I always forget about that little ol' DNS.

**xsperf** · 08-26-2005, 06:32 PM
